„Und baut sich sehr langsam auf“ is an aluminum dibond print that depicts a view of the sky framed or interrupted by trees and a house facade.

I took this picture when I was working for a landscape gardener in 2021 and we were redesigning a courtyard in Berlin.

I later reworked this image motif into a black and white image and – which is particularly important from an (artistic) technical point of view – into a vector graphic. This means that the image can be scaled up to very large formats and still retain its paper-cut appearance, i.e. you can’t see any pixelation in detail even in the very large format.

A text in German and English is built up around the image, it surrounds the image, so to speak. This text in turn appears – which is a central component of my artistic technique – in loop and mirrored form.

The image and the text ponder together about time, space and eternity – they do this in a strange oscillation between static and dynamic as well as between the paper-cut-like two-dimensionality and a strong perspective with a suction effect.
